Hello xxxxx xxxx,

We are contacting you because your PayPal account has potentially invalid or outdated information. Please log in to your account at https://www.paypal.com/us and update the information indicated below. After logging in, click on the Profile tab to update your account.

PayPal periodically checks the validity of members' email addresses, phone numbers and mailing addresses to ensure security and prevent potential issues with inactive accounts.

If PayPal does not have current or accurate information on file for your account, we may be unable to confirm your identity. This may make it difficult for you to recover a forgotten password or to receive money sent to you via money request or mailed checks.

Please make the changes indicated above today, or simply choose to close this account and open a new one. You can even use the same email address to open a new account as long as that email address is valid.

If you wish not to receive email reminders in the future, please edit your settings in the Email Preferences in your Profile.

Thanks,

PayPal

Why waste the account?

Update the info... away you go selling.

Take it as a piece of luck you got this type of email. As much as we bag paypal ( & they deserve it) they send these emails out to let users maintain their accounts properly.




Paypal being nice shocker

This PP A/C is 'OK' going by that email they sent you, you have not crossed any redlines as yet.

That would be a clue as to why you might have got that email from PP then.

is there any call fowarding services that you can also recieve texts under that number?

Sorry,I would have no immediate knowledge on this. You'd have to search across the board for the answer to this.
